William Henry Tuck
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William Henry Tuck (27 February 1831 – 8 April 1913) was a Canadian lawyer and judge.[1][2] He was described by Andrew George Blair as "undoubtedly the most skilful examiner" at the provincial bar.[3]
Tuck was Chief Justice of New Brunswick from 1896 to 1908.[1] He was also a Judge in the Admiralty.[4]
When Mabel French sought entrance to the New Brunswick bar, she was refused, as legally she was not a person and therefore, not entitled to practise law.[5] Tuck opposed her admission.[1]
